I was partially correct. WW does find methods with or without 'get'. So
this will work.
This <webwork:property value="string('gif')/endsWith('f')"/> will find a
method public String string(String whatever) and return true.
But this <webwork:if test="string('gif')/endsWith('f') == true"> does not
work hence your question.
I can duplicate this bug by adding a #13 test to expression test page. It
will not print "Success".
13) webwork:if test="bool('true') == true"
<webwork:if test="bool('true')/booleanValue/endsWith('e') == true">
<b>Success</b>
</webwork:if>
So, looks like a bug. Thanks.
